Ivee's eyebrows raised in amusement. "Do you qualify as unattached?" she echoed, her tone asking how the queen thought Ivee'd know the answer to that question.
Then she glanced at Sophie, who was nursing the last bit of her soup, and got a shrug in response to her unasked question- Sophie didn't see Manny any more often than Ivee did to have other thoughts on it.
Ivee didn't think so, but it was worth a shot.
So Ivee shrugged as well, turning back to the queen. "I'd say if not you, then Link might have a shot, just as a fellow male. You're both in the position of time having passed you by."
The queen's weird question made Ivee uncertain where Link might fall in that discussion- which also made her wonder even more about that earlier dodge and what it might've been a dodge of -but Ivee was willing to make a wager that if Link wasn't attached to the queen, he probably wasn't attached to anyone, just based on what she'd seen of him in his other interactions around town.
